Topic: [SOLVED] Apt Sources.list (Read 2318 times)

Hi again,I don't know if somebody knows that or if it's working on it, but i had opened a ticket regarding that.If it is solved please remove this post.

I had observed in a new install of 0810, there's some mistakes regarding the edition of sources.list. 1.- In the wiki installation guide for 0810 there's a duplicate line for repos and you get a warning regarding that:

3.- Also when you execute ./pre-install-from-repo.sh the scrip modify the sources.list file, removing the *.*archive*.* to *.*old-releases*.* but the repo from canonical still in archive and is not moved to old-releases entry. The entry for canonical should be:

OK, still having small fixes when you execute mce-install.sh it calls to repoplaces.sh. Repoplaces still changing the canonical repo from archive to old-release and fails to load. I made a small fix in the repoplaces.sh and seems to work fine, just define that 'archive' should be followed always by '.ubuntu' to avoid the problem with canonical.

It solves the problem and keep canonical in archives instead of old-releases. I tried it locally could somebody test it?For the people doesn't know where's repoplaces.sh, this file is in the new-installer folder you downloaded during installation.

Hi. That's mine. Sorry for the trouble. I mistakenly believed that cononical also needed to change. I have been awol for a while. Thank you for pointing out the error. Can you make an svn patch and upload it to http://svn.linuxmce.org/trac.cgi/ticket/1003 please?

I do not know your familiarity with svn which is why I ask you to do it. Good thing to learn... and if you know it already it is a no brainer.

I submit whole file repoplaces.7.sh to the ticket in svn, i will try to be familiar with svn. I didn't used never just two or three times.The file is corrected with the modifications that i commented up.
